droughts, the modeling of ground-water systems, the
analysis of flash floods in ungaged watersheds, the
optimization of energy use in urban water districts, and
the hydrologic analysis of an alpine watershed under
acid deposition stress.
Prior to his association with UCLA, he was a member of
the faculty of Oregon State University and an instructor
